Chile
Green Chile, Red Chile, Xmas Style. New Mexicans love their Chile. It’s addictive. You start craving it for breakfast. Then you want your french fries smothered in it with cheese for a snack. Then you begin wondering which place to go that serves chile for dinner but you can’t decide which place makes your current favorite red or green because, quite honestly, they are all delicious. It is the heart and soul of New Mexico cuisine. Chile in some form or another can be found practically in every dining establishment. Here are just a few top favs for some real deal Chile.
